These are vehicle campaigns — the ones the automaker filed against this model. NHTSA also records equipment recalls, filed by a parts maker against a component (a tyre, a child seat, an aftermarket part), and those are not listed here or counted above. nhtsa.gov/recalls shows both for a VIN.

Whether any of this applies to one specific Panamera

A campaign covers a build range, not a model year, so two identical-looking cars from 2025 can differ. Both of these check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list, free, in about ten seconds. Porsche publishes its own lookup because federal rule 49 CFR 573.15 requires it to, and to keep it current to within seven days.

Hear about a recall before the letter does

The manufacturer’s letter is the last step of a recall: it has up to 60 days after filing to mail owners, at the address on the registration. We email you the day NHTSA posts a recall on the 2025 Porsche Panamera, with what to do next. Nothing else, ever — no newsletter, no marketing, one-click unsubscribe in every message.

A service bulletin is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a known condition. It is not a recall, not a finding that the vehicle is defective, and the work is not automatically free — though a bulletin is often what a dealer works from when you describe a symptom, so quoting the document number can save a diagnosis. The count is every communication filed; the list shows the most recent, one entry per campaign, because a single campaign is usually filed as several documents on the same day. The summaries are NHTSA's; the full documents come from the manufacturer.

At the New York inspection station

In New York’s inspection lanes over the 12 months to Oct 10, 2026, the 2025 Porsche Panamera failed the safety inspection on 0% of first inspections — lower than the 0.36% for every 2025 model-year vehicle inspected.

A rate appears only where at least 200 inspections stand behind it. “Every 2025 vehicle” is every 2025 model-year car, SUV and pickup inspected in the same window, all makes.

Common questions about the 2025 Panamera

Source: EPA, NHTSA and manufacturer press kits

Does the 2025 Porsche Panamera have any recalls?

NHTSA has posted 3 recall campaigns for the 2025 Porsche Panamera. The most serious on file is 25V634000, covering Fuel System, Gasoline. Check your own VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls; a recall applies to specific build ranges, not every car.

How safe is the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

NHTSA has not published a crash-test rating for the 2025 Porsche Panamera yet. On the recall record WhichTrim grades it B (81/100), which measures open and severe recalls rather than crash protection.

What is the fuel economy of the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

Across the 5 EPA-rated configurations of the 2025 Porsche Panamera, the best EPA combined figure is 21 mpg (MPGe on the electrified versions). Figures are the EPA's own, per configuration, and every one is listed above.

What are the dimensions of the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

Transport Canada measured it at 198.8–204.7 in long, 76.4 in wide (body, without mirrors), 55.9–56.3 in tall, on a 116.1–122.0 in wheelbase. Curb weight: 4,001–5,313 lb depending on configuration. Those are its measurements of the North American versions; every figure is in the table above.

What do owners complain about on the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

Owners have filed 2 complaints with NHTSA about the 2025 Porsche Panamera, most often about forward collision avoidance, electrical system, suspension. Complaints are unverified owner reports, so treat the pattern as a signal and the individual report as an anecdote.

How clean is the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

The EPA smog rating for the 2025 Porsche Panamera is 4 out of 10. That score covers tailpipe pollutants other than greenhouse gases, and it only compares vehicles within the same model year. It is certified for all fifty states, so it can be registered new anywhere in the U.S. Its configurations were certified to different standards — California LEV-III ULEV70, Federal Tier 3 Bin 70 — which the table above lists per configuration.

Are there service bulletins for the 2025 Porsche Panamera?

The manufacturer has filed 1120 service bulletins and related communications with NHTSA for the 2025 Porsche Panamera, most often covering electrical system, engine, unknown or other. The most recent is dated 2026-09-29. A bulletin is not a recall: it is the repair procedure a manufacturer sends its dealers for a condition it knows about, and the work is not automatically paid for. It is still worth knowing — if the symptom matches, quoting the bulletin number at the service desk can save a diagnosis. The document numbers and summaries are listed above.

How does the 2025 Porsche Panamera do at state inspection?

In New York’s inspection lanes over the 12 months to Oct 10, 2026, the 2025 Porsche Panamera failed the safety inspection on 0% of first inspections — lower than the 0.36% for every 2025 model-year vehicle inspected. The figures are New York State DMV’s own inspection records, first inspections only, and the table above sets each one against every vehicle of the same model year.

Is the 2025 Porsche Panamera better than the 2025 Tesla Model S?

The Tesla Model S wins clearly, 90.6 to 62.5, on fuel & range, space & cargo. The Porsche Panamera is ahead on safety. We publish a full side-by-side of the 2025 Porsche Panamera against the 2025 Tesla Model S — specifications by family, equipment feature by feature, safety record and ownership costs. You can re-weight what matters to you and the verdict recalculates.

What we hold, and what an empty row means

Paid vehicle-history reports will not tell you the difference between “nothing happened to this car” and “we never received that record” — both of the big two say as much in their own help pages.

Sources & method

Safety Signal starts every model-year at 100 and subtracts points per open NHTSA recall campaign by severity: critical 15 (fire risk, park-outside or do-not-drive advisories), high 8 (brakes, steering, airbags, loss of drive power, structure, battery), moderate 6, minor 3 (software, labels, lighting fixed by an update). The most serious recall counts in full and each further one counts 85% of the one before, because a vehicle sold in millions is recalled more often than a rare one without being more dangerous — and because a flat subtraction bottomed the scale out, scoring a vehicle with 22 recalls within a point of one with six. A ≥ 90, B ≥ 80, C ≥ 70, D ≥ 60, otherwise F. Read it as what it counts: recall campaigns on the federal record, weighted by severity. The damping reduces the sales bias by roughly 40% but does not remove it: like our complaint counts, this is not normalized by how many were sold, so a best-seller still scores somewhat worse than an obscure model with the same real risk. NHTSA crash ratings, do-not-drive and park-outside advisories, and the crash, fire, injury and death counts in owner complaints are reported separately on every page and never blended into the letter — a vehicle can hold five stars and a poor letter at once, and where that happens we say so rather than leave you to notice. Because the scale subtracts from a clean sheet, a model year too new to have been recalled, complained about or bulletined scores full marks on an empty record; we label those grades provisional rather than present them as earned.

EPA figures come from fueleconomy.gov vehicle records. Recalls, complaints, investigations and crash ratings come from NHTSA's public flat files, refreshed nightly.
